yum!
because i don't eat beef broth, i cook my onions down, then add marsala wine (or red wine if i don't have marsala on hand). this time i added about 1/3 cup, and boy does it taste fabulous! on top you see a tasty piece of garlic and basil millet bread and some lovely low fat provolone cheese. i'm mopping drool up off of my keyboard!
and for those who might be interested, i bought this stalk of brussels sprouts. i had no idea that this is how they grew. trader joe's had these, and they said that 1 stalk had approximately 5 servings on it. note: it's been a few days since this picture was taken, but we've eaten about 6 servings and are still going!
Ha! Brussels sprouts surprised me, too. Check out what the plant looks like before they chop the leaves off:

If you pick them from the stalk, instead of chopping the plant down, the plant will keep growing taller and growing more sprouts. You get your knuckles scraped up when you pick them, though.
